Yuki and co. were excellent hosts. The hostel is very comfortable and quiet; I slept really well. The neighborhood is cute and quiet with a 24-hour grocery store and train station within walking distance. Would definitely stay again.
View on GoogleWhat a lovely place we found to stay in the middle of Tokyo. It’s oasis in a big city with amazing hospitality in a very good location near Shinagawa or a new station to open soon ‘Takanawa Gateway’ only 5 mins by foot away!! The cafe and bar offer you wonderful food and drinks. It’s hidden in a small street, which makes you feel you a live in this amazing city!!
View on GoogleMe and my family arrived in Tokyo way too early before check in but despite that Yuki answered our call and helped us set up our stuff to be kept safe while me and my family explored Tokyo then checked in during the proper time. Yuki is a great host and owner. Runs a beautiful bar as well. Would definitely recommend staying here and personally will probably stay here myself in future visits. Great hostel! Even just talking to Yuki is proof enough of the quality of the place. Cheers!
View on GoogleGreat hostel!! It’s arranged a bit like a house, and situated in a cosy, quiet back street next to a school. I stayed in the 6 bed mixed dorm which is really clean and has plenty of space for luggage, as well as lockers (bring your own lock though). The room has air conditioning and the bunks are spacious with electrical plugs, a light and a curtain for privacy. Beds are comfy. The hostel owner, Yuki, is a fantastic host. Super helpful, speaks English and is extremely friendly. His bar is a cosy little social hotspot for guests and locals alike. There’s a great selection of Japanese and European beers, and every evening they serve Japanese stew at a good value for money, but there are other meals available on the menu too. The hostel is only 5-10 min walk from Shinagawa station (one of the major Tokyo stations where you can get the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen [to Kyoto and Osaka] as well as the Narita express [to Narita airport]).
View on GoogleAmazing hostel / bar. Very quiet area and comfy room. 15 min on foot from Shinagawa station. I would come back again.
